Soup and Suspense!!!

Move over Miss Marple. Today's female
sleuths have come a long way since the
days of both Agatha Christie's aging
sleuth and Carolyn Keene's tenacious
teenager, Nancy Drew. Contemporary
heroines include single mothers, cops,
attorneys, and journalists. Balancing
relationships and careers, they defy
sexist attitudes and rescue themselves
from danger. Find out how mystery
authors
Toni Kelner,
Hank Phillippi Ryan
and
Nancy Means Wright are redefining
the genre by creating strong women
characters.
